Lance Armstrong: A Biography By Bill Gutman The road to victory has not been smooth for Lance Armstrong, one of sports history's most accomplished cyclists. In 1991, he was crowned National Amateur Cycling Champion, setting the stage for a professional career that seemed all but guaranteed. However, in 1996, a cancer diagnosis threatened to cut his career - and life - short. With the help of family, friends, and a dedicated team of doctors, Lance embarked on an extraordinary journey to overcome the disease and get back on his bike. The result was nothing short of remarkable: by summer 1999, he had not only recovered but led the pack to his first Tour de France win. This biography tells the story of Armstrong's remarkable rise to fame, from his early days as a cyclist to his most recent victories. Through it all, Gutman provides a gripping and insightful account of Armstrong's life, revealing the twists and turns that have made him one of sports' most compelling figures.
